What's up with Clickbank Analytics?

Ok well here's the situation..

I'm trying to track the conversion rate of my new product and basically all my software is contradicting each other.

Clickbank analytics, which shows you what affiliates and how many visitors they gave you to your sales page, is like three times higher than the actual page views according to google analytics

Who should I believe? Is clickbank analytics accurate or not really, I'm not really familiar with the service?

    The cb analytics also includes the activity of robots meaning if google bot where to come and crawl your site it would show as one visitor on the clickbank analytics page so this could be the reason for the difference, I don't know whether it is the same for google analytics though.

    It could be that the stats are not counting the same "24 hour" period because they're in different time zones. I believe Google Analytics is user-set, while ClickBank is Pacific time (? don't quote me on that, not 100% sure).

    Keep in mind, too, that different stat programs sometimes count things in different ways.
